Etude Ligne 1941

A textile designer, architect, illustrator, sculptor, abstract artist, teacher, and magazine editor, Taeuber-Arp refused to be confined to one discipline and explored the boundaries between applied and fine arts. She was central to the pre-WWII European art scene, and a close follower of the Dada movement. Her prodigious output was recognised in her Tate Modern Retrospective in 2021, which underlined her position as one of the most important avant-garde abstract artists of the last century, (1889–1943).
